Kiwi House of Beer

The view from the outside.

The slogan is "No Crap on Tap," which is both a promise and a mission statement. Kiwi House of Beer is a small but purposeful New Zealand presence in the heart of Málaga's city centre, and the slogan holds up. The taps I tried were genuinely good, including a New Zealand-style pilsner that made a strong case for itself.

The setup follows the reliable formula: eight or so taps, a cooler of cans and bottles, a selection that covers Spanish craft alongside the New Zealand contingent and whatever else made the cut. We also had a bowl of chili that was more than generous enough for two people and entirely deserving of a positive mention.

The bar: compact, focused, and living up to its slogan.
